i have a pretty large collection of cookbooks, from classic Julia Child to the old Victory Garden cookbook, seafood of New England as well as the Caribbean, must-have Fanny Farmer baking, 'JOY', the kitchen bible, too many to list! a few antiques also, they are fun.
i just ordered this one. my Mom was a Southern lady, so i ordered it for my sister too. reviews sounded delicious!

The Lee Bros. Southern Cookbook
Stories and Recipes for Southerners and Would-be Southerners

From the book jacket:
The Lee Bros. long-anticipated first cookbook is a culinary coming-of-age tale, narrated in recipes and amusing anecdotes, of how two boys learned to cook Southern without a Southern grandmother Inside, you’ll find exceptional recipes for Fried Chicken, Crab Cakes, and Red Velvet Cake, the Southern classics that have become restaurant hits around the country. But you’ll also find lesser-known preparations such as St. Cecilia Punch, Frogmore Stew, and Shrimp Burgers—dishes that seem fresh and original agains the backdrop of iconic American comfort food. Also here are recipes that bear the hallmark of the Lee Bros.’ style: simple yet sophisticated dishes such as Hoppin’ John, Scuppernong Grape and Hot-Pepper-Roasted Duck,a Sweet Potato Buttermilk Pie that ushers Southern cooking into the twenty-first century while never losing sight of its deep roots. No one brings the same blend of witty intelligence, reverence and since passion to Southern food culture.
